100,000 Members and New Changes in Place -
10-14-2007
Congratulations to MMOwned for reaching 100,000 Members today!
Registration was locked momentarily while I ran a few scripts to determine which users have been leeching.. and we have a lot.
If you haven't been posting or trying to help at all.. you've been leeching.. but not for long, we'll be moving all members who leech to a special usergroup called "Lazy Leeching Lowbies" they won't be able to download files, view images or have a signature even.. Now is the time to prevent your account from extinction by making a few posts.. thanking someone who helped you... or even writing a guide to something you haven't seen on the site yet.

The first usergroup changes will be made this evening.. I'll be creating special ranks for first made posts.. meaning, your rank will change everytime you post if you never posted before. Gaining rep in your first few posts will have a bonus multiplier of 50% added to it. Negative rep will be allowed to be given by contributors now... Higher ranked users who haven't received rep in a long time will have their rep start to decay, meaning you could become demoted for turning into a leecher after you receive your higher status usergroup. Donators will be the only ones with a static usergroup. Users with a lot of negative rep will be deleted at the end of every month. Lots more changes to come, some debateable.. these changes haven't been made yet as I'm still seeking opinions.. I don't want to cut off registration entirely because WoW is dynamic and I don't want the site to lose its dynamic community.

There are people who joined months ago, and still haven't made a post, or done anything xept read a guide and walk away. This is directed at them.
